Rapes? Famines? Horrors?

I do not think schools teach us ENOUGH about history. There is so much they censor us students from.. for what reason? So when we get into the real world and some disaster strikes us, we don't know to react? I feel that yes at younger ages some things in history should not be taught until at an appropriate age for us to be able to handle it. Things like the Rape of Nanking shouldn't be kept from us, or the Ukraine Famine. We should learn about these horrific events so we can better understand our world's history, and know how to look for the signs of it possibly occurring again! In the past history has repeated itself over and over because governments have censored and hidden the truths and wrongs they have done to protect really only themselves, not their people. My generation and future ones, shouldn't be the history repeaters... we should be I guess the history writers. I mean this in the sense that we know what has happened in the past and not let that become reality once again. Who cares how harsh and brutal the history is? Personally, I'd rather LEARN about it then be apart of it! It's happened, it's the past and should have the opportunity to learn in detail about what's happened. If someone can't handle it, then they should leave the room and be given an alternate assignment. It's better to be given the chance to learn about horrible genocides, and famines, and wars and what went on, then to not get the chance to learn about it at all..
